Product Safety Assessment: ESTASOL Oxygenated Solvent Environmental Information 15,16 Dibasic esters are moderately volatile, and may evaporate from products containing them. However, because they are highly soluble in water, once introduced, they have a tendency to remain in water. Dibasic esters have minimal tendency to bind to soil or sediment. Dibasic esters are unlikely to persist in the environment. The compounds are readily biodegradable, which suggests they will be rapidly and completely removed from water and soil environments, including biological wastewater treatment plants. Dibasic esters are not likely to accumulate in the food chain (bioconcentration potential is low) and are slightly to moderately toxic to fish and other aquatic organisms on an acute basis. The U.S. EPA risk-based prioritization of the dibasic esters assumes that there is potential for exposure to aquatic organisms from environmental releases. However, the low acute aquatic hazard and the overall environmental fate characteristics (e.g., not persistent or bioaccumulative) of all members of the dibasic esters category suggests a low concern for potential risk to aquatic organisms from environmental releases.

Back to top Physical Hazard Information 17 Dibasic esters are stable at typical storage and use temperatures, but may decompose at elevated temperatures. Avoid contact with oxidizing materials. For more information, see the relevant Safety Data Sheet. Back to top Regulatory Information Regulations may exist that govern the manufacture, sale, transportation, use, and/or disposal of dibasic esters. These regulations may vary by city, state, country, or geographic region. Information may be found by consulting the relevant Safety Data Sheet or Contact Us.
